Preface

Each person's personal inner world (puthujjana, mortals, at that) the pollution (kilesa) as greedy and rapid boiling contentious nabagesera flourish. What's next by audience in the continental one, with beautiful colors as such. When nabagesera started being under all that satisfied and enjoyed the sticky status was an attā (ego, the concept of a "living entity") is not the basis, which is also the core of potential hidden depths section very difficult to eliminate.
So thanks to assiduous effort and wisdom, Buddhist schools independent from (Pacccekabuddhas, Bich Chi Buddhist) himself has the ability to take advantage of status removal stick stuck to the notion of an ego within themselves without assistance. But he does not have the ability to help someone else with their sticky eradicate this. Only these special abilities have wisely indicated, for the other people know the truth and the arms of Four new Soles could wipe out Ta stick this with Ant in the mind of others. Jesus Buddhas (Pacceka buddhas-) independent from can't do, because then He just became independent from Visual Sensory input Are independent from Buddha Buddhist Nirvana alone. He is not the Primary tier Victorian Chief Justice and cannot teach the Dhamma to others.
Victorian Chief Justice Chief Justice Jesus, All ranks, has the ability to sense the deeper quang minh Sensory independent from the Buddhas, Paccekabuddhas. Chief Justice Chief Justice Institute Buddha Enlightened also meets Four Soles like Jesus Buddha independent from Buds, which further, longer, helping others through scrupulously thorough the wall four marvelous deep truths. So now you are Chanh Victorian Chief Justice, Sammā Sambuddha.
The World Religion preaching the Dharma First mentioned the Four Soles, for years the hermit. The French known as the Dhammacakkappavattana Sutta, Zhuan Falun, transportation, wheel of the Dhamma. This is the first Teachings that Buddha Board. This Sutra lecturing him on Saturday afternoon, the full moon night, DL. exactly two months after The Dao.
When the Buddha over the French Starter, the hermit protagonist, Koṇḍañña, Kieu Tran Da Tu Result, Dak As Huờn (Sotāpanna, enter the Save). Prime witness Dao Result Da ily Huờn Tu saints have excluded all skeptical about the Dhamma and any concept of sakkāya, physical body, see this body is the "ego" or a living entity. Anyway He still māna, crumpled alongside the [*]. The other four have yet to adopt special witness Teachings, awakening to the Super location, or level of subliminal mind ".
[*] Word of the translator: noun falls side of the user are translated from the Sanskrit language, Māna, not only means pretending as usually understood. It is claimed that "intersection" and compared the "intersection". Viewed themselves than men, by a person, or loss of the three forms of māna, falls on her starboard side.
Because of its falling, or accept the ego, deeply embedded in the stream of Koṇḍañña, and as well as three other Vappa in groups of five successful yet Taoist brothers "French Label pure and Immaculate," should the Buddha continues to promote and encourage him to maintain mindfulness and a passport in accordance with France Proving meditation (vipassanā). After the meditation, positive all in all Holy Huờn Tu Da floor achievements, thus excluding all stick with this body that approved themselves, ego (sakkāyadiṭṭhi, user comments). He said that one witness Vappa insight on the first day after the full moon night, Mr. Bhaddhiya, Mr. Mahānāma on the second day on Tuesday, and Mr. Assaji was on Wednesday.
That The entire collection of world Religious Groups In Its back and preach the second French article, presenting the doctrine of anattā (anatta). Then on Thursday, five days after a full moon night, DL. Upon hearing the finished Anattalakkhaṇa Sutta (Sutra Egolessness General) all five are prime evidence of ethics Result A La Chinese, so that all five are completely eradicated all forms of craving, māna, fork covers. As the noun Anattalakkhaṇa Sutta tactile function meaning (anattā = anatta, lakkhaṇa = special General) this business article clearly presents "egolessness", as opposed to deviant comments accept its "ego".
Anattalakkhaṇa Sutta is not an investment. In his duty as the primordial World Buddhist States Matched the six released, this economy is just finishing a paper page. Business article with no mention of methods of meditation or a technical passport. This instruction focused on the truth of nature is more than the methods of practice. So for those who are not familiar with France Proving meditation (vipassanā meditation) but difficult to understand the real General egolessness is described in the article. Firepower in the hermit quickly comprehend the doctrine might be because the French Government The duty to Counsel students and also because of the superlative luck is listeners have had profound knowledge sharp sensitivity. All the five were mature experience from listening to business Zhuan Falun (Dhammacakka Sutta), which also has crossed the stage to enter the Store. So he quickly achievements Dao Result A La Han.
At the time of the Buddha and in which the knowledge was sensitive to sharp and ba-la-suite (pāramitā) full circle as the group in the Taoist, just to hear The lawyers ' duty to preach the rapid achievement of ethics Result (magga-phala). Of course, it is thanks to the main listening The the duty Counsel preaching, but the also have to spend a lot to actively work cultivating Intelligent meditation (vipassanā). The Dhamma is only Special achievement because of the situation he was sincerely trying to actively meditate, have entered the intention solid, profound and a sharp projector sensitivity, and only a few people have sufficient wisdom or enough three-la-suite to be so. Many people can not a projector and recorded quickly seemed to like it.
Although there are those who are lazy to make seem fluent says: If his reading thanks to understanding nature of egolessness need practice. One can accomplishments Dao Result by just listening to such teachings. " With that kind of thinking is so desirable that they put them on par with the Bible. The same concept I gratify not only the class sits, who claimed himself, as Holy as simply just been listening to the Dhamma. The class is not less. Types of physical understanding of anatta by gleaned it here through the French is not really evidence of personal enlightenment, but rather of understanding through books. If the Dao and the result can be shown to meet in this way, most of the Buddhist understanding justice anatta can be considered A La Han. However, because people don't have the morals (paramittā) of the arahats, obviously they are not truly A La Han. Interested in bad mistake of the same opinion mining, Mr. Mahasi Sayadaw raised the teachings clearly and correctly in My Anattalakkhaṇa Sutta, Egolessness, to bring the General who was then on the foot of the Chief Justice.
Trading Post Anattalakkhaṇa describing the nature and physical features of egolessness, but simply not only teach methods of meditation or a technical passport and recorded, and the triangle. In this book Mr. Sayadaw expressed a full method of contemplation and explained with full details the way reflecting on egolessness can result in levels of achievement in Nirvana.
Trading post is presented according to the Scriptures, based on personal experiences during meditation practices Coalition (vipassanā), and is explained after having obtained the experience and personal insights in practice under the guidance of an intelligent engineer, and after consulting the Ðiển Pali and explained.
Of the time taught Him compassion with wide teaching Sayadaw enough economic post details Anattalakkhaṇa Sutta, the Buddha teachings transmitted briefly. When the French this time recording was judge retirement, U Thein Han, transcribing and typing the full back, long-manuscript 420 pages. U Thein Han submitted to Mr. Sayadaw and ask permission for publication. He kindly accepted after the briefing, only keep the tenets diamonds mainly of 152 pages. Partly also because at the time the paper printed books were scarce.
Probably, of course, Mr. Sayadaw ingeniously wide lecture the point too simplified and concise passages Shou too long lines. There's the You the summary article lengthy menstrual Anattalakkhaṇa Sutta, Egolessness and "Intelligent Meditation Method" which also explains Dhammacakka Sutta song obvious, Zhuan Falun, help for those who like to read and listen to the Dhamma in a thorough way, a brief but clear, and so is a blessing for all.
Every time preaching or writing, Mr. Sayadaw focuses more sense are the principles of grammar. For example, the Sanskrit term "Bārāṇasiyaṁ", usually translated as "in Benares", then there is nothing wrong. But to close with more reality, Mr Mahasi Sayadaw written "in the region of Benares" or "near the Benares" because at the time The World Ton temporarily dwell in stag (Deer) near the city of Benares (instead of static in Benares).
Although much care to the meaning of the sentence, He is not concerned because the Sayadaw Italy which left doesn't keep the correct grammar. In other words, His full attention to the grammar but especially focuses on the meaning, not to because in the correct grammar that distort the meaning of the sentence. So his translation is incorrect according to the traditional method. Once figuratively considers His sentence alignment according to the true meaning and expression in words, written or spoken.
Teachings about the three General impermanence, suffering, egolessness (anicca, dukkha, anattā) sounded very familiar, and always at the top of the lip and pull the blade the Buddhist. Every time there is a little more important happenings occurred successively we hear reference to the noun, suggesting should recall the Dhamma. This procedure proves that the teachings of the three General characteristics are very popular and are widely known among Buddhists. Probably, of course this is just my understanding through books or as often heard repeating, but in fact this is a hard doctrine spectacle reaches full, although the view from the outside see as understandable. In General, three assistants anatta, "the anattā", is the deep magic and hard to smoothly. That's the main reason The World Crown has met serious opposition of these characters as Dao Singer Du Fang Saccaka, Baka Brahma and because of the situation we have antagonistic comments about "ego".
Prior to the teachings of the Buddha do people understand that the "ta" inherent interlaced with the physical body (rūpa, colors) and spirituality (nāma, mailing). For patients with Ta this ant the Buddha declares that the name and identity is not "me", not the "ego". In fact, very difficult to make people fully spherical "egolessness" because of the immeasurable life the concept of the "ta" deeply, setting the root firmly. If the doctrine of "ego", we can easily understand the need not to have a current a Buddha in the world. Nor should a disciple of the Buddha, as Mr. Mahasi Sayadaw, must spend to clear explanations and thorough write Business Glossary Egolessness, Anattalakkhaṇa Sutta. The attempt does not know his tired Sayadaw to elucidate the doctrine, we showed the level of profound teachings. Releases coming in the not-to-very rare e-Buddha-who knows what the "ta", ego, or "attā", the less understanding "egolessness". The teachings of his appropriate Mahasi Sayadaw explains clear and Fair Trade article Egolessness General Anattalakkhaṇa Sutta, have the effect of giving those who lost an anchor, which concerned the mistake, return to the foot of the Chief Justice.
Once, when I went to the temple Wetlet Masoyein Monastery, the audience hushed Him Sayadaw, then to the city of Wetlet to the sermon. I am the white asked him, "How would understand that the novel uccheda (the opinion, advocating death is out, that after his death, all of which terminate) and Nibbāna, Nirvana, the resolution is the same? because they both have the same end before you go. " Mr. Sayadaw, "Probably there are differences. Nirvana has the character and dignity of it. How Nibbana is not that special. " Since then broken conversations across the Middle so I didn't get a chance to ask more, "Thus shalt not characteristics and special dignity of Nirvana?" Mr. Sayadaw probably did not remember the story doesn't matter. However, while reading through this manuscript, as to the explanation regarding the uccheda and Nibbāna I conversation memory. The explanation of this book, page, to clarify the distinction between uccheda-diṭṭhi, the doctrine, that kind of deviant opinions advocated that after lifetimes of one being terminated, the beings he absolutely annihilation, and Nibbāna, Nirvana. Those who believe in this initiative ties misled to think that the end of life and Nirvana are the same, but knowing that completely wrong. In fact both individually.
About the concept of paragraph (ucchedadiṭṭhi), in about 1971 I invite the community gathered together to hear the lecture my Satipaṭṭhāna Sutta, Anniversary, visiting Him and U Dhammakatthikas Mahasi Samvara and Zawtika U help for relatives in Zhen in the village is the opportunity to listen to the Dhamma. I arranged for the French was taught in the village of Inchaung where the bereaved relatives have in me. On the day, in groups of listeners have a man named Maung Kyi, a leader of the Communist Party magazine the flag Ðỏ, a fervent believer where theory advocated not the life after the current lifetimes. He is the one person in the group to me should also come to the fun in my case. Day He u.s. Samvara and shaman man dedicated to preaching the Dhamma and everyone is very concentrated Hy Festival heard.
Maung Kyi was invited to and willing to lend a hand during the ceremony, to the surprise of everyone, because everyone knows that he just believes in the dogma advocated "no life after this life".
Early in the morning on the following day he appeared at the home of a man who invited me to use the fucking. In this occasion Maung Kyi said to me, "Sir, I accept the view of Dhamma which Mr. U Samvara mentioned yesterday night, but please don't misunderstand that I was religious, became a believer the spiritual doctrine (nāma). Because you are a Buddhist, you believe there is a future, after this life, should you try to create the blessed to satisfy ambitions for the next life. The us, we don't like that, we have no greed. In life we never saw any comment whatsoever. We've put down nabagesera every and any clinging to life. " Listen to so I thought, "this Gives depending where your point of view. According to Buddhism, desire and nabagesera clinging to life just ended, or only be eradicated when I become A Luohan. If not yet freed out of the instinctive craving to wear the attachment into the next life, if still believes passionately that life will annihilation after death, we will fire an inferno, Bourn Niraya, agony scene. The dress it properly according to the teachings of the Buddha. "
Although Maung Kyi severed all bondage and out of separate self "living life", his wife was unable to do so. She started preparing for the baby has just raised by Mr. and Mrs. ritual spice sa di (sāmaṇera).
Fanatical belief in passionately, Maung Kyi told his wife, "I don't need to practice regardless what the ritual to pray blessed him greatly in the next life [*]. If you want to then arbitrarily do to bridge the main part I blessed him, when prayer renunciation for the child, he could not play the role owner, hugged pitcher Bowl and hold the fan, put some sa-di to the Temple ".
His wife responded, "no one who stands out as empty ceremonies I couldn't guide these sa-di. If he refuses, I will hire the person portrayed and practice the ceremony master of ceremonies necessary. " Sounded so Maung Kyi shock of frustrating, frustrating to sit stand still, unable to tolerate or accept the presence of a person who was hired to play the role that his holiday home. At the time, he was in a State hit hardest nan rot. Later I heard someone in the village reported this story.
I fully believe that the teachings of noble Anattalakkhaṇa Sutta will increase steadily the treasure of faith all you readers and bring many benefits to you.
